Dodgers: Remembering Orlando Hudson’s Rare Feat 11 Years Later

Let me take you back into the past a little bit here. The day is April 12th, 2009. The Dodgers are facing off against their rival Giants in a game that features Chad Billingsley going up against Randy Johnson. The future Hall of Famer would get seven rungs hung up on him in just 3.2 innings. Meanwhile, Chad Billingsley went on to pitch a seven innings gem. But that was not the storyline of the game.

No, instead it was a speedy second baseman who stole the show. Fans might remember Orlando Hudson, or O-Dog, as just another name that passed through Los Angeles for a year.
